Dear church family,

As the returning sun shines for longer each day I pray that your hope and faith also increase day by day. As more of our vulnerable people are vaccinated there is a sense of relief, but our time of face masks and physical distancing is not yet over.  We are called to continue to be a caring community of faith: masking and distancing in order to care for one another.

There are a few things coming up to help us on our way.  There will be more information in next week’s newsletter, but I want to pique your interest with a little taste of what’s on the horizon: 

  • Our Journey from Syria begins February 1 – we are walking from Syria with our refugee family and as we walk with them we will also learn more about being a refugee.  10 minutes activity = 1 kilometer and we have a lot of kilometers to go.  Please invite friends and neighbours to join our walk and get planning how you can make your kilometers add up.

  • Lent begins with a joint on-line Ash Wednesday service on Feb. 17.  Lent mid-week services will be Wednesdays on-line with Holden Evening Prayer and Devotion. 

  • Bible Study – I have had to postpone our Tuesday Bible Study because of a slower recovery from eye surgery than anticipated.

  • Our annual meeting will be a Zoom meeting. March 21. Don’t worry if you are uncomfortable with Zoom -- we are going to have a practice run February 28 and there will be a phone-in option.

  • Your weekly assignment – I have asked for help in coming up with a weekly challenge to reach out to others in our church family.  Here is one of those suggestions for this week’s assignment: contact someone who has a birthday in the same month as you. Our last directory contained a celebration calendar to help you with that.  This might also be a time to put your celebration dates in our calendar so we can keep it up to date. 

  • Guest preacher this week:  BC Bishop Pastor Gregory Mohr

God bless and keep you well!

Week of Prayer for Christian Unity January 18-25, 2021

WPCU image.jpg

WPCU Bible Study 2021

A daily Bible study on the theme of the 2021 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity.

Monday, January 18 to Monday January 25 from 12:15-1:00pm CST (except Sunday, Jan 24 at 1:00pm CST)

Register at https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/wpcu-bible-study-2021-tickets-135920448721

Hosted by the Prairie Centre for Ecumenism and the Regina Council of Churches, this study is free and open to all. A different Christian leader will guide us each day as we explore the theme "Abide in my love and you shall bear much fruit" (John 15:5-9).

The 2021 theme calls us to pray and to work for reconciliation and unity in the church, with our human family, and with all of creation. Drawing on the Gospel image of vine and branches, it invites us to nourish unity with God and with one another through contemplative silence, prayer, and common action. Grafted into Christ the vine as many diverse branches, may we bear rich fruit and create new ways of living, with respect for and communion with all of creation.

WPCU Online Ecumenical Service

Dear Church Family,

Happy New Year!

The newsletter comes out this week so I only have a few things to pass on. The January 2021 newsletter is available on our website.

  • I recently learned that Everett Larson’s children donated 85 musical instruments to the non-profit organization CAMP (Community Arts Mentorship Program). A fitting donation to remember Everett’s legacy as a music teacher. Everett was part of the music ministry at Augustana for many years. https://thestarphoenix.com/entertainment/local-arts/children-of-beloved-music-teacher-everett-larson-donate-more-than-60-instruments-to-sask-non-profit

  • Our worship service is available by phone.  Just call 1-306-205-1168. Please let us know how this service is working for you and if you have any suggestions for it.  We are thinking of putting just the Scripture readings and sermon on to make it a more manageable length to listen to on the phone.

  • Jan. 10 we are joining King of Glory for worship along with the other Saskatoon ELCIC churches.  We will join Good Shepherd for worship on Jan 17th as I will be recovering from cataract surgery. I will not have an update for the next two weeks.

  • Your assignment for the week:  it is a new year … contact someone new. You can use our current church directory or use an old directory.

Greg and I would like to thank you for the many cards, letters, photos, and gifts that we received this past Christmas. Your thoughtfulness is appreciated!

God Bless your new year with health and wellness,

Pastor Marilyn

December 12, 2020

Dear Church Family,

This week we are welcoming the other ELCIC churches to worship with us on-line. We will read the Bible stories and sing the carols as we “unwrap” the gift of the Christ child.

There are some in our congregation who do not have access to a computer or smart phone.  We are working on how to put our worship services on the telephone so that they can take part in worship.  But we are not quite there yet.   If you have a good speaker on your computer and can connect with someone by phone so that they can listen over the phone along with you, please let me know.  I can pair you up with someone who does not have internet access if you need help finding someone.  I would like for everyone to be able to hear the special music and hymns this week and throughout the Christmas season.  Please let me know if you can help out with this.  

I am amazed that we have been able to receive enough special offerings to put together our Christmas hampers this year. Thank you for making that happen under the difficult circumstances this year.

Your Advent week 3 assignment:  please phone or contact one or more folk whose last name ends in the letters N – S.

God bless you and keep you safe,

Pastor Marilyn

December 5, 2020

Dear Church Family,

This week we will light two advent candles.  Christmas is getting closer, but it will be a different Christmas this year in some ways.  But in other ways it will be the same. We will hear the scripture readings that prepare us for the arrival of the Christ child once again and we will sing the songs that remind of God’s love.  Even if we do these things in our homes rather than in the church building they are still part of our advent preparation.

Your assignment this week:  as we make our way through the alphabet this Advent season please contact one or more people whose last name begins with the letters G – M. By phone or letter or email or however you can reach out. 

Next Sunday we lead worship for all the ELCIC churches in Saskatoon.  It will be our Advent Lessons and Carols Service. Thank you for your donations for our Christmas hampers -- we are well on our way to being ready.

God bless and keep you well,

Pastor Marilyn

November 28, 2020

Hello Church family,

The newsletter came out this week, so I will try to not repeat information.  You should have received the newsletter in an email and it is available on our website as well. 

I have been concerned with the growing number of active covid 19 cases in Saskatoon and our plans to hold regular in-person services at Augustana.  I know it is so much more satisfying to gather together in person, but for now we will have to make our contact and care for one another through other means:  phone, letter, email, video calls, and sidewalk visits.  Bishop Sid and Pastor Ali hosted two town hall zoom meetings this past week. Their recommendation to the whole synod is to have only on-line worship until the end of January.  At that time we will re-evaluate.  This also means that all meetings at the church will be cancelled or occur by zoom or video.

I do know that there are many phone calls, letters, and emails occurring among our church family, but if you have been missed or you feel the need to connect, please do so.  Even though we are physically distant, my hope is that no one will feel that they are alone or isolated or left out. 

Your assignment for the week: since this is the first of 4 weeks of advent I have divided the alphabet into 4 parts.  Each week I will ask you to phone someone whose last name is in that part of the alphabet. This week call one or more people whose last name ends in the letters A to F.

May the peace of Christ sustain you from day to day!

Pastor Marilyn

Advent 1 is about HOPE

 

Light one candle to watch for Messiah;

Let the light banish darkness.

Christ shall bring salvation to all of us,

God fulfills the promise.

November 21, 2020

Dear Church Family,

This past week there has been some grim news and warnings about the rate of covid infection in our province. Our care homes and hospitals are once again “no-visit” zones and we are being asked to limit our everyday contacts.  This is difficult news for anyone in care and for families and friends who cannot visit in person.

Your assignment this week is to reach out and contact someone who is living in care or to contact a person who has someone in care with whom they cannot visit. Please keep the residents and staff of the Lutheran Special Care Home (Sunset home), Rehoboth Care Home and all care homes in your prayers.  

If you want to talk to someone give me or our parish nurse Carol a call.

I would like to share a prayer poem with you that acknowledges our dark times, but points to the light which we know is the light of Christ.

In Times of Affliction

May we discover that the road we didn’t choose

didn’t want to travel,

is a highway that leads unerringly

towards the light

Frances Copsey

(in A book of Blessings, Ruth Burgess, Wild Goose Publications 2001)

One bright light this past week was the baptism of David Lindenbach.  His baptism is included in our worship this Sunday. I would like to remind you that when someone is baptized our whole congregation is asked to support and care for them and help them grow in their Christian faith.  That is a very happy task for us to take on. 

God bless and keep you well!

Your sister in Christ,

Pastor Marilyn

Dear Church Family,

I hope you are all well after a winter’s worth of snow!  It took a while, but we are dug out now and the buses are back. The covid 19 numbers seem to be headed in the wrong direction right now and I expect that our province will likely have more restrictions in the days ahead.

I do want to point out that you are not alone even if you are isolated at home.  Right now we are still connected through phone calls, letter writing, and in the virtual world.  I would encourage you to reach out to others in our church family who might be feeling down or lonely.  I have always experienced Augustana as a caring church family and now we are being tested on how to keep being that very thing. 

May the peace of Christ bless you!

Stronger Together 2020: youth ministry during a pandemic - register by November 20
Stronger Together brings together youth and young adult leaders from Dioceses and Synods from across the country to build community, worship and learn about issues facing Youth Ministry. This year, we have moved our gathering online and it will take place from November 24-25. While we know meeting online can't replace an in-person gathering, we hope that more leaders will be able to participate this year because there will be no cost restraints. To find out more, please click here.

Stronger Together is an expression of the Full Communion relationship between the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada and the Anglican Church of Canada. All Youth Leaders and Campus Ministers are welcome.

There is no cost for this event, but you will have to register by November 20, 2020 to participate. All sessions will be held online. Details on how to participate will be sent by email after we receive your registration.

If you can't make the sessions when they go live, they will be recorded and posted at a later time. Email Gretchen Peterson (gpeterson@elcic.ca) or Sheilagh McGlynn (smcglynn@national.anglican.ca) to let them know that you'd like to watch the recorded sessions at a later time or if you have any questions.

November 7, 2020

Dear Church Family,

This week we are joining the other Saskatoon ELCIC churches in worship led by Redeemer.  The links for that worship are at the bottom of the email and on the website. 

Please include in your prayers this week Audrey Hedlin and her family.  Audrey is in hospital and her family is gathered with her in shifts. 

“Loving God, your heart overflows with compassion for your whole creation.  Pour out your Spirit on Audrey and her family and loved ones.  Help them to know that you claim them as your own and deliver them from fear and pain; for the sake of Jesus Christ, our healer and Lord. Amen. “

Please also keep our neighbours to the south in your prayers as they deal with their election.

“Almighty God, we lift before you all who govern the United States. May those who hold power understand that it is a trust from you to be used, not for personal glory or profit, but for the service of the people.  Drive from all cynicism, selfishness, and corruption; grant in your mercy just and honest government; and give us grace to live together in unity and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.”

These prayers are taken from our ELW hymnbook (pages 85 and 77).  If you wish to have a hymnbook at home, please pick one up from the church. There are hymnbooks and a sign-out sheet at the back of the sanctuary. The hymnbook has many items in it that are supportive and healing: prayers, hymns, psalms, the small catechism and daily prayer.  I am finding the hymnbook to be a great resource during this pandemic.

May God bless you and keep you,

Pastor Marilyn

Dear church family,

The newsletter and calendar will be coming out later in the week. There are two things that I would like to pass on to you today.  The first is to remember the family of Jean Spurgeon in your prayers. Jean was the secretary at Augustana prior to her retirement.  Jean died this past week.

The second thing is to let you know that we are postponing our next in-person service.  It was to be November 1, but with the rising number of active cases in Saskatoon we thought it prudent to postpone for a couple of weeks.  All visiting at hospitals and care facilities has also been cancelled for two weeks.  Hopefully these two weeks will give our community time to flatten the curve once again.

When we do have an in-person service again those who wish to attend will be asked to register by calling the church office the week ahead. 

God bless and keep you well,

Pastor Marilyn

PS. I have been reminded again that YouTube has a “closed caption” or CC option on the bottom right of the screen.  This is extremely helpful if you have trouble hearing the audio.  Simply click on “CC” and the words of the service will appear on the bottom of the picture.  It adds a bit of humour sometimes too.

 

 

October 16, 2020

Dear church family,

I hope you had a chance to celebrate Thanksgiving this past week.  It might not have been the same celebration as other years, but there is still much for which we can be thankful. It’s evident that we will be operating under covid 19 guidelines for some time to come. I appreciate the creative ways Augustana people have found to continue being a community of faith. Many groups are still safely meeting with in-person physical distance or zoom or a combination of both.  We are becoming more used to worship on-line and singing our praise with gusto in our own homes.  We are learning how to worship safely in person in a small group. The choir is learning new ways of singing praise to God. And so on and so on.  THANK YOU for being a community of faith that is willing to adapt without complaint.

I want to remind you that there are people who will pick up and deliver groceries or medication if you need help.  The church office has the list of volunteers.

Saskatoon lost a very special person when local youth advocate Brandon Applegate was murdered this month.  Brandon is the grandson of Doug and Dorothy Reid who were members at Augustana until their move to Abbottsford, BC. Please keep Brandon’s family in your prayers.

Sunday October 18th

  • 4-5 pm Confirmation kick off at Meewasin Park (wear a mask, bring a lawn chair, dress warmly)

Dear church family,

God bless your thanksgiving celebration this weekend. Let’s be the 10% that returned to give thanks.

We worship with the other ELCIC churches in Saskatoon this Sunday.  Zion will be leading our joint worship this month. 

The church is not re-opening, we have never been closed.  That is because the church is the people not the building.  We are a community of faith. We have slowly begun to open up the building.  We had our first in-person worship service last Sunday with 10 people in attendance.  I believe that we were able to meet safely by following the guidelines from the province and synod.

You might have heard about church services that resulted in outbreaks of covid 19. I believe these outbreaks are the result of not following proper safety guidelines.  I want to assure you that Augustana will always follow and keep up to date with the recommendations from Saskatchewan public health and the synod.

Here are some announcements:

  • Next Sunday, Oct. 18th:

    • On-line worship from Augustana

    • Zoom Holy Communion 2 pm. Link provided next week.

    • Confirmation 3 pm (Meewasin Park) more information TBA.

  • CPR class – the Oct. 26 class is full.  If you wish to take this class please contact Linda Catton or parish nurse Carol so another class can be scheduled.

  • Items for Nov. newsletter and calendar due to church office by Oct. 20

Worship link for this week:

Zion will be live streaming on their Facebook page at 10:30 am Sunday morning (https://www.facebook.com/ZionLutheranSaskatoon). You do not need a Facebook account to view the livestream.

Zion will also be posting the service to their YouTube page later in the day Sunday (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=zion+lutheran+church+saskatoon) – you can also search Zion Lutheran Church, Saskatoon

God bless and keep you safe,

Pastor Marilyn

October 3, 2020

Dear Church Family,

Tomorrow we are going to have our first in-person service since the middle of March.  We are following all the guidelines that the province and Saskatchewan Synod have provided.  We will see how things go before we confirm the next in-person service November 1. In Europe and Great Britain all the churches that have followed the covid 19 protocols have had a safe return to in-person worship.  We will continue to provide an on-line service, so don’t feel pressured to return to services in the church building. Check out the newsletter on our website for more information.

The on-line service this week is pretty special with many photos of the animals in our lives.  I have recently learned that you can click on CC – closed caption on our you tube service and the words of the service will come up.  Handy for anyone who has a hearing loss.

Please keep Wes and Brenda Ulmer in your prayers.  Brenda’s sister, Judy Harris, died recently.  Judy operated the personal care home where Byron Horner lived until recently.

We and the other Saskatoon Lutheran churches will be joining Zion (on-line) for worship next weekend. 

God bless and keep you well.

Dear church family,

There is lots of news in the newsletter (attached and on the website) including an introduction to our new admin. assistant Lorene Jewitt.  I do have a few things to highlight this week.

  • If you are attending worship in-person next Sunday (Oct. 4) please pre-register by Friday. Just call or email the church office.  Check out what a worship service in person will be like in the newsletter.

  • Last week we had a surprise visit from my dog Sophie … This week, as the commemoration of St. Francis, I am hoping for many more visits of the animals in our lives.  Please send me a picture of your animal so it can be included in our blessing of the animals in worship next week.  Text or email will work (by Thursday please).

  • Calendar addition: CPR training October 26, 5 pm. Please call Carol Kostiuk or Linda Catton for more information or to register.

  • Life is different – no doubt about that – and we are still trying to figure out how to do what we normally do.  We will still do Christmas hampers this year.  It may be done a bit differently, but we are going ahead with this regular part of our ministry and outreach.  If you wish to make a donation towards this, please indicate so on your offering.

God bless and keep you well

Pastor Marilyn

Dear church family,

You might notice a little doggy face peeping out at you this week during worship.  It was not intentional, but it certainly fits with us marking the season of creation.  I had to tape my part of the service from home since I was waiting to hear back on a covid 19 test.  Our dog Sophie quietly took her place behind me and checked out the camera.  Fortunately, the letter carrier did not come while we were taping J or you would have seen and heard Sophie.

I have attached two links this week

·       Worship Service   https://youtu.be/YIPjCnXuafI

·        Holy communion by zoom (2pm Sunday afternoon)   https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89549800180

There are instructions on how to set up for Holy Communion by zoom in the September newsletter on our website. 

We plan to have an in-person worship service on Sunday, October 4.  Be prepared for worship to be different than you are used to.  If you wish to attend this service, please register by calling or emailing Lorene at the church office. We are limited to about 35 attendees for worship. I will tell you more next week. 

As a congregation we are trying to maintain as much of our regular ministry as possible. We are still In Mission. Many of our groups are meeting again or are preparing to meet.  Some meet in person or outside.  Some meet by zoom and some by a combination of in-person and zoom.  There are specific guidelines for us to follow in order to meet safely.  We add a new group or meeting every 2 or 3 weeks and pause before adding anything new. This is a learning experience for us all, but it enables us to be in mission during a pandemic. Thank you for your continued efforts to keep in touch and care for each other.  I have appreciated your support and encouragement and suggestions.       

God bless and keep you safe!

Pastor Marilyn

PS. I deliver a copy of our weekly worship service to people who do not have access to internet. If you know of someone who needs this, please let me know. Pr. M.

Dear Church Family,

Our worship service this week is being hosted by Resurrection Lutheran Church.  It is a live service starting at 10 am Sunday morning.  Please note the start time of 10 am. I believe it will be available later on via YouTube.

If you have never done zoom before, this is a chance to practice being “adventurous.” I have never participated in a zoom worship service myself so this will be a lesson for me as well.  I attached Pat Blakley’s very helpful instructions on how to zoom.

God bless and keep you well,

Pastor Marilyn

August 29, 2020

Dear Church Family,

The September newsletter will come out sometime during the next week. You will notice on the calendar that we have begun to gradually add some meetings and activities to the church building.  After the addition of a new activity we wait 2 or 3 weeks to see what the effect is.  If all is well, we carry on and add one more new thing.  If things don’t go well, we stop and re-evaluate and make a new plan. I think of this as one way to love our neighbours as ourselves. 

Here is some information to hold you until the newsletter:

  • Coffee after church:  11:30 am Sunday morning by Zoom (link below).

  • Holy Communion or a Baptism with your “bubble” of people can be arranged by calling me and setting up a time.

  • Our first Holy Communion by Zoom will be Sept. 20 at 2 pm.  More information about that in the newsletter.

  • A family memorial service for Georgina Krenn will be Sept. 5 at 10 am.  Georgina’s family are arranging to have the service as a live feed.  I should have the link to that live feed by Sept. 4th.

May God bless and keep you well,

Pastor Marilyn

Dear Church Family,

I hope you have all been able to keep cool and hydrated this last week. What a hot week! I don’t have much information to pass on this week, but the pastors and deacons met with Bishop Sid and Pastor Ali Tote this week. 

  • Our decision to hold off on in-person worship until after school has settled in was affirmed by Pastor Ali.  Pastor Ali is also an epidemiologist and is acquainted with how disease spreads and how to prevent that spread.

  • We have begun to gradually add some meetings and activities to the church building.  After the addition of an activity we wait 2 or 3 weeks to see what the effect is.  If all is well, we carry on with one more new thing.  If things don’t go well, we stop and re-evaluate and make a new plan. I think of this as one way to love our neighbours as ourselves. 

Bruce Nordstrom is moving to Samaritan Place (375 Cornish Road S7T 0P3). 

The September newsletter will come out next week. If you have items for the newsletter or calendar please forward them to bryan.tastad@gmail.com.

Three more things:

  • Coffee after church:  11:30 am Sunday morning by Zoom (link below). How to do Zoom is attached.

  • Holy Communion or a Baptism with your “bubble” can be arranged by calling me and setting up a time.

  • Worship assistants:  in the past we have had a schedule of people to be worship assistants. I would like to continue that. We have one worship assistant a week right now. The worship assistant can record at home or at church.  When we record at church we maintain physical distance. Please contact the church office if you would like to be on the schedule. It is wonderful to see a church member on the screen.

May God bless and keep you well,

Pastor Marilyn
